Sometimes you have more than one, even if you only intend to use one.

e.g. The on-board sound is awful, so you put in a card.  Unfortunately,
you find you're unable to disable the on-board sound card, so you do
your best to just ignore it.  But some things will try to use the wrong
sound card.  Which is made even worse if you have an internal software
modem, as that's another *sound* device.  And then there's cards which
emulate another card, though you can't use both modes at the same time,
but appears as two sound cards.

It's amazing how badly multi-media still sucks on the PC architecture,
even after twenty odd years of it.
